  • Patent number: 12147263
    Abstract: A low power system on chip for supporting partial clock gating is provided. The system on chip includes a network on chip including a first CG-network interface module, a second CG-network interface module, and a clock gating control module, a first IP block that communicates through the first CG-network interface module, and a second IP block that communicates through the second CG-network interface module. The clock gating control module receives a clock gating request from the first IP block, outputs a communication control signal to the second CG-network interface module in response to the received clock gating request, and performs a clock gating operation for a clock signal in response to the received clock gating request to selectively deliver the clock signal to the second IP block.

  • Publication number: 20240352078
    Abstract: The present inventors confirmed that when a brazzein expression recombinant vector for high expression of brazzein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was prepared and a S. cerevisiae strain Y2805 was transformed with the recombinant vector, the expression level of brazzein was particularly high, thereby completing an optimal expression system for mass-producing brazzein. Further, when the brazzein expression system is cultured under the optimal culture conditions according to the present invention, the amount of brazzein produced is further increased, the purification process is simple, and costs are reduced. Therefore, it is expected that the brazzein expression system according to the present invention can be widely used for mass-producing and commercializing brazzein, which is a sweet protein.
